Everything was ok until last weekend. I'm suffering the same problem with strong whites and general overexposure. If i change the settings it doesn't get any better.

I have to make more tests, the only thing that i recently changed was an old SD card with a new microSD and SD adapter, maybe SX50 have some compatiblity problems with new SD or microSD

I have had my SX40 and SX50 ready to go for another bit of testing.  For 2 days no full sun.  I did get a few shots in of very white flowers and with -1/3 EV on both cameras they came out acceptable and virtually identical.  However, white flower petals are not white painted steel as on ship pilot houses.

I swapped out the SD card on the 50 with the 40.  I have some doubt that the SDs could effect the dynamic range but worth checking.  Unfortunately all these type cameras have limited DR but they shouldn't worsen as I suspect was happening with my SX50.  Still waiting for that sunny day.  The ship anchored out front awaits.
